Hello. I just did this same job and followed this video to a T. Buttoned her up tonight and the clutch won't engage at all. Like it's hitting a brick wall. Have you ever encountered this?
There is now a mod on the clutch basket to drill more oil holes to allow better oils flow to stop the heavy clunk when selecting 1st gear I had mine done.
Actually, I did not find it difficult to torque the clutch shaft nut going back together. With the clutch pack installed and compressed by the diaphragm spring, put the transmission in high gear and step on the rear brake while pulling on the torque wrench. One-forty foot pounds, no problem.
Get the BMW special tool for the anti-lash gear, it takes care of both gears at once and the basket will pop right in. Also impact guns shock gears and can cause brinneling. Use the tool to hole the clutch basket and avoid damage to the gears. Replace the aluminium bolts for the cover with SS bolts and they can be reused again and again, without any real weight increase. I also soak even second-hand clutches for insurance, I like the clutch to be wet going in.
Really appreciate the video, but next time please move the dangling bits out of the way. It the slave clutch obscured the view of the bikes oil chain. Thx. This is a much needed video to demystify the prices BMW dealers charge to do this work.
Me as "a untypical German", like most the part "...thats a 190 Newtonmeters, trust me..." gimme more of that....love it !!! Great video thanks, helped me a lot !!
BMW maintenance disc says the engine must be at top dead center. Didn’t hear you mention this…so don’t worry about it? I have a 2011 k1300s. Again..thx for the video.
You can “um” as much as you like, if it wasn’t for your tip on spinning the pegged washer by moving the little chain I’d still be in the workshop trying to get the bas***d thing to mesh !
I developed clutch issues in my K1300R after the first 1000km service. Never could resolve it. BMW denied any problems, said the rattle was supposed to be that way. Got rid of it asap. Shame because it was a cracking good bike otherwise.
Please help! After install, my slave cylinder will NOT sit flush. The bolt that applies the force seems to protrude too much even though as far as I can tell it’s installed correctly!
Great video mate, I am sure it will help some one out down the line.
Brilliant
